Kirschblütenfeuerwerk 2015

Every year in May, Hamburg ceremonially welcomes the cherry blossoms with a fantastic fireworks display - a spectacle that attracts thousands to the Outer Alster.

 

Since 1968, the Japanese community has thanked Hamburg citizens for their hospitality with a fireworks display over the Outer Alster. On the model of Washington, the Hanseatic City was given several hundred cherry trees in the 1960s, which still line the Alster today.
